G'day fellow hunters,

Just wondering if anyone has seen or has photos of the water levels of any of Victorias Duck Hunting Lakes (Hindmarsh, Buloke, Goldsmith etc.) after the recent rains/floods?

Cheers, Nick

Hoping to take a drive to Lake buloke at the weekend for a look, Mal & Simon o were there earlier in the week and said it looks good for the upcoming duck season, hope to have some photos up by the end of the weekend.

Nicho i was told by a local in Donald that Buloke has got at least 4 ft of water in it, and is right down to stricklands point and out as far as the tree line on the east side.
Marty

went thru boort last sat the big lake is on the edge of the road at 100% plus i reckon so not bad seeing it was showing empty in sept,lake lonsdale today hit 96% so the yabbies should be good for a while yet.
